"Holy crap! This is the first time I've seen the head chef unleash his potential. He's amazing!"
"Of course! The head chef's potential lies in speed and reflexes. I'm going to unleash my full potential too, activate Source Turbulence!"
"Go all out!!!"
The chefs in the entire kitchen started working desperately. Apart from the head chef, all the chefs here were awakened in the early stages of awakening. The whole kitchen seemed to be in a state of war.
The food trucks had already started to form long queues, with people coming and going.
"What the heck! What happened?" The superhumans who came to eat were completely baffled.
"Esteemed guest, this private room is occupied by a high-level superhuman, who is currently engaged in a competitive eating contest," a waiter, exhausted and nearly collapsing, said breathlessly.
"Huh? So many dishes? Holy crap! This is at least Tier 3! Such an important person is actually here!"
"Don't worry, we won't bother you. We just want to wait until the important people have finished eating so we can admire their figures."
Soon, the attraction drew all the extraordinary individuals in the tea area to gather around and watch.
However, no one dared to stick their head out, as this was considered extremely impolite to a high-ranking superhuman with outstanding achievements.
Time passed slowly, and the head chef was so exhausted that he lay down under the stove, his eyes rolling back in his head.
"The last one! Finally finished!"
"Yes, my hands are so tired I can't lift them anymore."
The chefs were so exhausted they were lying all over the floor, and the delivery workers were also lying all over the corridor.
"Honorable guests, this is the last one." The lobby manager placed the last dish on the table with trembling hands.
If he weren't a superhuman who had awakened his abilities, he would have died suddenly by now. Even so, this meal felt incredibly heavy in his hands.
"Mine!" ×2.
Ishtar and Quetzal gripped the edge of the plate at the same time, their eyes meeting as if lightning were striking each other.
Tap tap tap! The table was tapped, and the two looked in the direction of the sound.
"Bring it here," Luo Sheng said.
"That's enough, Mom's taking it." Tiamat took the food directly to Los Saint, then picked it up and brought it to his mouth: "Ah~"
Tiamat served him food, and Buyer served him rice, which he ate slowly and elegantly.
"Fine, that's enough. Damn it, I didn't win again." Ishtar slumped onto the dining table, tears welling in her eyes. She didn't have any special talents among everyone; was she really going to become a useless goddess?
"Quetzal's great victory, ha ha ha!" Quetzal put his hands on his hips.
Yae no Miko rested her chin on her hands and watched as Luo Sheng's ears twitched, her eyes narrowing into slits as she pondered something.
Fukalos and Raiden sat upright, sipping their post-meal mouthwash.
Meadow and Artoria leaned back in their chairs, rubbing their bellies with satisfaction on their faces.
Bai Yuekui was flipping through a book, seemingly unaffected by the conflict at the dinner table.
Joan of Arc walked up to Los Saint and gently wiped away a trace of oil from the corner of his face and mouth.
"It tastes really good, a rare delicacy." Luo Sheng nodded with satisfaction; it was indeed the best meal he had ever eaten.
He was very satisfied with the store, and the other party did indeed do their best to provide service.
A restaurant where most people are awakened can't be that bad, no matter how bad it is.
"Are you satisfied?" Luo Sheng looked at everyone and smiled. The atmosphere among them had changed somewhat after this meal.
"It's delicious, please come again next time, Brother Luo." Maiduo raised her hand, licking the rice grains from the corner of her mouth.
"Master, it's delicious." Artoria nodded with satisfaction.
"Am I that delicious?" Los Saint joked, standing up before Artoria could explain. "Then let's go if you're satisfied."
The lobby manager and all the exhausted waiters stood up shakily and moved to both sides. Even the chefs ran out of the kitchen to see who this troublemaker was.
"Distinguished guests, are you satisfied with our service?" The lobby manager bowed slightly.
"You've done a very good job," Luo Sheng said with a smile, as he stretched out his hand, and elemental crystals appeared in his hand and flew towards them.
"These are elemental crystals. You can exchange them for money, or you can keep them to use for cultivation after you obtain immortal runes in the future. If you use them for cultivation, they can be converted into about 50 points of elemental power."
"Consider this your tip."
"Honored guest, this...this is not in accordance with the rules. We cannot accept extra tips." The lobby manager was flattered; he hadn't expected the offer to be an 'elemental crystal'.
These things can only be produced at nodes with exceptionally high elemental concentrations, and they are controlled solely by nations. They are extremely rare, and even second-tier transcendents may not be able to obtain a single one.
"Hehe..." Luo Sheng chuckled, said nothing more, and walked directly toward the hotel entrance, with the women following behind him.
"Thank you for your hard work." Quetzal waved casually at the exhausted waiters and chefs.
"Welcome back again, esteemed guests." The lobby manager bowed.
"Welcome back again, esteemed guests!" The waiters and chefs bowed excitedly.
"Gulp~" The superhumans who were watching all swallowed hard.
Is it really that extravagant to use elemental crystals right off the bat?
"Upon closer inspection, there are actually 31 of them, and where did all of them come from? Hiss..."
"Space equipment! Holy crap!"
"Hiss~ As far as I know, the only one with storage ability is the 'Eye of God', which is only possessed by those who are close to gods, my goodness."
"Hiss! That's not surprising. It's not surprising that he's a near-god."
"My God, I actually encountered a near-god here! I can brag about this for the rest of my life."
For ordinary extraordinary individuals, a "near-god" is a super-powerful figure hailed as the guardian deity of a nation, and there are only a handful of them in the entire world.
Ordinary extraordinary individuals can obtain the Immortal Mark by doing good deeds for decades, but they can only dream about the 'Eye of God'.
"Mr. Zhao, your restaurant has really made a fortune!" An extraordinary individual walked up and patted the lobby manager on the shoulder with envy.
Mr. Zhao's main job is as a lobby manager, but his side job is 'Monster Hunter,' and he ranks among the top 10,000 in the city, making it very likely that he will be able to advance to the second tier of Immortal Runes.
At that time, they will directly absorb elemental crystals and leap to become senior second-tier extraordinary beings.
A hotel where a group of highly accomplished individuals rave about the food and even tip it is bound to become the most sought-after social spot in the entire city.
The lobby manager snapped out of his daze: "It's just luck; those VIPs chose my hotel." He gripped the elemental crystal tightly in both hands.
The news quickly spread across the internet.
The Extraordinary Management Center was also alerted, but no one knew who those dozen or so high-level extraordinary individuals were.
Those who can produce dozens of elemental crystals and have storage space must be 'near-gods', who are at the level of national guardian deities. Therefore, the Extraordinary Management Center is particularly proactive.
But no matter how I search, I can't find it.
Of course, it can't be found, because Los Saint directly modified their identity information and interfered with everyone's subconscious.
Even if you investigate, you can only find out that a high-level superhuman has indeed stayed at the hotel. Superhumans are all from the general public, and that's about it.
No one doubted that these extraordinary individuals might be gods, and people wouldn't believe it anyway; as the saying goes, the correct answer is ruled out first.
After the group left the restaurant, Bai Yuekui dragged Maiduo straight to the shopping mall. Even though he was almost a hundred years old, he couldn't resist the allure of shopping.
Quetzal and Ishtar were still locked in a fierce battle, storming into the arcade to decide the winner with a game; neither of the two Venus goddesses would give an inch.
After all, they are both goddesses of Venus. Whoever is weaker will feel embarrassed, and whoever feels embarrassed will want to turn the tables.
Neither Buyer nor Los Saint were interested in video games because they were too easy, so Buyer suggested playing chess with Los Saint. Los Saint also wanted to try and challenge Buyer's wisdom. Tiamat, meanwhile, stood next to Los Saint, licking a huge ice cream cone and occasionally offering it to him.
Time passed slowly, and the God of Wisdom, Buyer, faced off against the Mystic Root, Los Santos, with Buyer winning 11 and losing 27.
Neither of them used any force to cheat; they relied solely on their intelligence.
“You’re so amazing at everything you do. I’ve tried my best and only managed to win 11 times,” Buyer said gently, even winning just once made her very happy.
"I just have a better brain," Los Saint said with a laugh after capturing one of Buyer's pieces. At this moment, Los Saint stopped and looked towards the entrance of the arcade, and Buyer looked over as well.
All I saw was a man dressed as an electrician, looking menacing, carrying a stick as he walked in, heading straight toward the boy who was yelling and beating up the street thug.
The boy was still wearing his school uniform and was so focused that he was completely unaware of the danger approaching.
"Wang Xiaochen, you bastard! You're playing games at the arcade again! I'll beat you to death!"
"Oh no! Mom! Dad! Stop hitting me! I'm not playing a game, I'm simulating combat to gain experience for when I become a monster hunter in the future."
"You want to be a monster hunter? You dare skip class with just your awakened willpower! I'll spank your ass until it's a bloody mess!"
"Oh my god! Stop hitting Dad! If you keep hitting him, the future Hunter Captain will die halfway through his journey!"
"You're still running! Don't you know your old man has awakened his abilities? Do you think you can escape?!"
"Dad, don't pull down your pants to hit me. People are watching. Give the future Hunter King some face. Ouch, it hurts so much!"
Luo Sheng burst into laughter as he watched the internet-addicted teenager being chased and beaten.
The new era he created with his own hands is truly fascinating.
Everything seems to be changing, but in some ways nothing has changed.
He gave everyone more choices and more freedom: those who wanted a peaceful life could live well, and those who wanted to become heroes could fight.
The era he created was a dangerous era, an era of freedom, an era of passion, and an era in which everyone could choose their way of life.
Luo Sheng looked at the riverbank in Guanghai City, stood up, and said, "I'm not playing games anymore. Let's go and slowly experience this new era."
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” Buyer gently took Los Saint’s arm.
“I’m going too!” Tiamat grabbed Los Saint’s other arm.
The modern city is still the same modern city, and the cars running on the streets are still the same, but the people have changed. The loading and unloading workers in front of the shopping mall can lift up goods that used to take ten people to lift with just one hand.
The elderly people who used to dance in the square have now become people who exercise by lifting stone blocks. A middle school student who hates the noise of the elderly people opened his mouth and emitted a sound wave that made the elderly people cover their ears and jump up and down. However, he did not curse loudly, but reluctantly turned off the sound system.
Those who hadn't awakened looked on with envy and jealousy, muttering curses under their breath.
Those who haven't even begun to awaken still make up about 40% of the national population. Many of these people were once upper-class individuals, but have now become completely marginalized.
Los Santos walked along the riverbank, where a thin layer of water elemental energy was spreading. A group of middle school students in school uniforms were searching for small slimes on the riverbank.
In sparsely populated areas, elemental energy gradually condenses, and over time, harmless elemental creatures will emerge, with slimes being the most numerous, followed by crystal butterflies.
Middle school students are looking for slimes to take home as pets. For them, finding a slime as a pet would make them the coolest kid in school. If they find a Crystal Butterfly and raise it, they will be hailed as the king of the kids in the area.
